Bissingers Sea Salt Caramels continue to give nod to King Louis' distinction, utilizing a recipe that dates back to the 17th century. This modern combination includes the daring taste of tangy apple caramel, topped with a dusting of ghost chili sea salt. The Ghost Chile (Bhut Jolokia) is the hottest pepper in the world, outranking the former red savina Habanero champ. Warm and spicy, these caramels are a delight for chile-heads, but not too intense for everyday chocolate lovers.

I bought this for my husband as a stocking stuffer. It's tough to find ghost pepper chili outside of salsa and hot sauce so I had to buy this. The salt is what is hot, so make sure you take a full bite to mix all the flavors together. Everything tastes nice, the caramel is sweet with a nice fall apple taste, and the chocolate.. well.. it's chocolate, so it's lovely. But the addition of the ghost pepper salt takes it to an entirely new level. Absolutely wonderful. I'll buy this again for sure.

Fantastic!

Loved the taste of these caramels, the apple hits first and then the chili lingers. Wonderful. Pretty pricey, the caramels are small for $2 a pop, but they are an indulgence.

Dissapointed

I bought these because I am a spicy food junky and whats not to love about chocolate. While I did not find them overly hot and the chocolate and salt married well, it was the apple flavoring that turned me off. It seemed very artificial tasting and to me the sweetness of the apple flavor overwhelmed the other great flavors and just blended to make a really awful after taste.

AMAZING

Dont let these caramels sit on your lips. Just pop the whole candy in your mouth and enjoy.

Not tasty at all

The only good thing about these was the salt. The chili flavor overwhelmed the entire piece, and the taste was not a good kind of chili either.

Don't Let the Ghost Chili Scare You!

These are amazing! Such an experience. The tastes of these wonderful caramels change so pleasantly. First the chocolate & heat of the ghost chili dust, but not as intense as the thought of Ghost Chili would be (but, word to the wise if you try these-make sure that dusting makes it passed the lips and not to bite down on one with the lips, use teeth only or put the whole piece in your mouth--the dusting will burn and needs saliva to start to neutralize--in other words, I learned this after the first one). Then once the chocolate melts, you are left with the wonderful taste of the caramel as it finishes out with the apple (almost pear) flavor. A true party for the palate
